    I just got in the stand. The farmer is here cutting the corn right now. Hoping the tractor is the dinner bell.

    One time I shot a monster doe with the combine going right past my stand and she never gave that combine a second look.

    Just had a small buck pass by but he didn't have a shot on it. Hoping that's a good sign they are moving early.

    Yeah I’ve watched deer let the combine get within 40-50 yds before moving out of the way. Guess we shall see.

    My next hunts will be Thursday evening and Friday morning. Saturday morning there's a good chance it will be me and the grandson again.

    Well, no deer. But, we had a pretty awesome evening. After that small buck passed by at 5:30, nothing happened til 6:20. I even told Trevor the next deer we see will be at 6:20 and it will come from right there. Sure enough bam. Here comes a real nice 1 1/2 old. Probably had a 14" spread and 8 points. I'm guess 90-100 inches. He came in after messing around a bit but he was about 30-40 yards away and too many trees. Then another one about the same size comes in. He came to about 25 yards. Too many trees and then he turned and left. Then another one was walking behind us and Trevor got turned and he had a shot, but he said he couldn't hold the crossbow up any longer. So we tried resituating in the seat so he'd have more room so he could use the side of the stand as a rest but couldn't pull it off. He said this was more fun and exciting than actually shooting his first deer. He definitely has the fever and wants a buck so bad. I'm taking him back out Saturday morning. It should be pretty good then. Only thing is he's using up Papa's hunting time. But that's ok. We are having a blast.

    Sounds like an exciting hunt. Hoping he connects with a buck Saturday morning.

    Good thing is that you know they will be moving once it stops.
